Life as the butchers wife really started back in 1990 when Randy and I got married. He has been a meat cutter since graduating high school! In 1997 we bought Mission Meats and have spent a lot of time working together. We often get people asking how we are still married considering the amount time we spend together - my answer is "we know our place!" - he in the back and me in the front. For the most part, this works. There are days when our paths cross and things get a little tense but usually it is too busy for us to dwell on small stuff and you know what they say "it is all small stuff".I would like to say it has been smooth sailing all the way, but that is just not how life works! We have had to work very, very hard for most of the 16 years we have owned the meat shop, and you know - I wouldn't have it any other way! Cause it is the struggle that makes you strong and helps you to appreciate all you have, including all the great customers who support us. Some who have supported us since we first started, some we have met along the way, but everyone has contributed to the success of our products and service! Making it all worthwhile.
